Thought this required its own post as we might need to create a new community.

I managed to get in contact with the creator of the community (same username on reddit). I don’t think he’s coming back to lemmy. He’s offered to delete the community if that frees up the name for us to create an identical community on lemmy.world. I don’t know if that’s possible or if the community can be transferred to another user instead.

Staying on lemmy.world seems like a good idea imo as new arrivals will gravitate towards that.

Anyone have any ideas of the best way forward? Anyone fancy being an admin/mod lol?

Edit: He might not be permanently gone. Just coming back every once in a while.

Here’s the conversation if anyone is interested.

With the way Lemmy functions, having a dedicated football/soccer instance should be the right move.

Keep this one open with a redirected pinned post to the new instance/community and lock it.

Maybe soccer.football is better? Anyone fancy hosting?
